Searches across all inventory items using text query
AI agents call search_inventory to retrieve information from RSpace MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a read-only search operation across inventory data. It retrieves information based on a text query without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent — at worst, it could retrieve sensitive research data, but cannot alter or destroy it.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'search_inventory' and description states it 'Searches across all inventory items using text query' — a pure retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Searches across all inventory items using text query. It is categorised as a Read tool in the RSpace MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the RSpace MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_inventory: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches RSpace MCP Server. Nothing to install.
search_inventory is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the search_inventory rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for search_inventory. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
search_inventory is provided by the RSpace MCP Server MCP server (rspace-os/rspace-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
